What Minecraft Players Are Saying

★★★★★ 4.8 / 5 from real Minecraft server admins. Honest feedback from XGamingServer customers.

Their panel is really straightforward. They have guides for everything — how to mod it, how to wipe it, how to add a save. Performance for my Fabric server has been great.

Fantastic Minecraft hosting. Server setup was instant, performance is great even with a bunch of plugins on PaperMC, and the support team was super helpful when I had a question about ports.

Had a couple of issues on day 1 getting my Forge server running, but the support staff fixed it so fast and so well that I knew I could trust the service. Will likely be back.

Frequently Asked Questions About Minecraft Hosting

Below are some common questions about our Minecraft server hosting. If you have others, please feel free to reach out.

What is Minecraft server hosting?
  • Minecraft server hosting is a service where you rent server resources (CPU, RAM, storage) from a provider like XGamingServer to run your own private or public Minecraft game world. This allows you and your friends to play together 24/7 in a persistent world with better performance, stability, and control than hosting on your own computer.

Is your Minecraft 26.2 “Chaos Cubed” server hosting ready for the June 16 update?
  • Yes. Our Minecraft 26.2 “Chaos Cubed” server hosting is ready for the June 16, 2026 release. Spin up a server now, and the moment 26.2 ships you can one-click update from the control panel — no migration and no downtime. The update brings the new sulfur caves biome, sulfur cube mobs, and the experimental Vulkan renderer that moves rendering onto its own thread for higher, more stable FPS. It works on both Java & Bedrock and every server type (Paper, Spigot, Purpur, Fabric, Forge).

Do you offer specific PaperMC or Spigot server hosting?
  • Yes! You can easily install PaperMC, Spigot, Pufferfish, Purpur, and other performance-optimized forks with one click using our server type switcher. Our hardware is well-suited for running these demanding, plugin-heavy server types.

Is your hosting good for Forge or Fabric modded servers?
  • Absolutely. We provide robust hardware (AMD Ryzen CPUs, NVMe SSDs, ample RAM options) ideal for modded Minecraft hosting. You can easily install Forge, Fabric, NeoForge or hybrid servers like Mohist and Arclight using our panel, or upload your custom mod setup via FTP.

Why should I choose dedicated Minecraft server hosting?
  • Dedicated hosting provides guaranteed resources (CPU, RAM) not shared with other users, leading to better, more consistent performance, especially with mods or many players. It offers greater stability (less lag/crashing), enhanced security (DDoS protection), easier management via control panels, automated backups, and 24/7 uptime compared to self-hosting or peer-to-peer.

Can I install Mods and Modpacks on the Minecraft Server?
  • Absolutely! Our custom control panel includes a Modpack Installer supporting CurseForge, Modrinth, FTB, and Technic for easy installation. You can also switch to Forge or Fabric server types to install individual mods manually via FTP access.

How do I manage my Minecraft server?
  • You manage your server through our user-friendly custom game control panel (based on Pterodactyl). It allows you to start/stop/restart the server, manage files, install mods/plugins, configure settings, schedule tasks (like backups or restarts), manage users, view console logs, and monitor resource usage.

How many players can join my Minecraft server?
  • We offer "Unlimited" player slots, meaning we don't impose an artificial cap. The actual number of players your server can smoothly handle depends on the RAM and CPU resources allocated in your plan, as well as the server version, mods, plugins, and in-game activity. We recommend starting with our suggested RAM amounts per player count and upgrading if needed. For example, a 4GB plan might suit 10-20 players on vanilla, while a heavily modded server might need 8GB+ for the same player count.

Can I customize my Minecraft server settings?
  • Yes, you have full control. You can easily edit `server.properties` and other configuration files through our control panel's file manager or via FTP to change the server name, game mode, difficulty, world seed, enable command blocks, set player slots (within performance limits), configure resource packs, and much more.

Is Minecraft server hosting affordable?
  • Yes, our Minecraft hosting plans are designed to be affordable while providing high performance. Plans start from just $8.00 per month, especially with our introductory 30% discount. We offer various tiers so you can choose the resources that fit your budget and needs, from small servers for friends to larger community servers.

Can I upgrade my Minecraft server hosting plan later?
  • Yes, you can easily upgrade (or downgrade) your Minecraft hosting plan at any time through our billing area. If your community grows or you decide to add more mods/plugins requiring more resources, upgrading is simple and often applied automatically after payment.

What hardware do you use for Minecraft hosting?
  • We utilize high-performance hardware specifically chosen for demanding game servers like Minecraft. Our nodes typically run on powerful AMD Ryzen CPUs (like the 7950X advertised in our plans) known for excellent single-thread performance crucial for Minecraft, paired with fast DDR4 RAM and blazing-fast NVMe SSD storage for quick world loading and chunk generation. We connect this to high-bandwidth network infrastructure for low latency.
